Silver and Gold, Jewellery, Animals and Gifts by Michael Burton
Silversmith and Goldsmith
Welcome to the website of Michael Burton, Silver and Goldsmith.
Michael is a
highly skilled silversmith currently working from Somerset. He is internationally acclaimed
for his variety of artefacts and works of art. He carves in
precious metals and his works range from minute animals, motor
bikes and tractors to larger items such as teapots,
porringers, bowls and larger table centrepieces in silver.
His work has been shown in many
exhibitions across the world. Examples of his work are to be
found in collections in the new jewellery room at The
Victoria and Albert Museum, the medals collection at the
British Museum and modern masterpieces in the vaults of
Goldsmiths Hall. He has completed commissions for both
Westminster and Winchester Cathedrals, H.M. the Queen, and
other members of the royal family and Jeff Beck.
Michael makes and sells all sorts of
very fine jewellery for everybody, such as pendants, necklaces,
earrings, brooches, charms and rings in both silver and gold as well
as non-jewellery items such as cups, goblets and chess sets.
Prices start from £40.

As well as
selling gold and silver pieces of his own design Michael also
undertakes commissions, so if you have an idea please contact him.
He
always applies the same degree of care and attention to detail
to his commissions and work, large or small, in jewellery and
silverware.
His work
includes hundreds of designs and you will notice as you look
around the site that he has a particular fondness for animals
especially pigs but
also other animals such as
lions, frogs, dolphins, hedgehogs, elephants, hippos and even
snakes. He also has created many
silver and gold suns and moons. As you will see
from the photographs on this page some of these items are tiny
and require a lot of skill, and a steady hand.

more about Michael's work, previous
